    I read through this and it helped me a lot. (I've still never overclocked, but I have a better understanding of what it is now.) Very informative.

    maybe he is... but it's kinda true.... water cooling would be MAJOR overkill.... but hey, I'm not one to speak I'm always up for a game of overkill when it comes to compy's

    see if you can't get some good utilities for overclocking.... not quite sure that it will do anything on your board but there is always a possibility. I don't really know of any off the top of my head, but I know I've used SpeedFan before for monitoring and it has an overclocking utility built in. There is other stuff as well such as FSBsoft (or something like that) you mght check into them do a lil research and find some more.

    Watter cooling doesnt have to be just for overclocking. It makes any system run much more stable. Although i dont know anyone who would watercool without overclocking.

    One of these days i'll explain why watercooling and air cooling are almost entirely equall in terms of cooling power. It really comes down to what suits you best.

    The main reason watercooling wins is because it's quiter, less dusty, and unless you've splashed out on a Zalman, looks better in a mod. In terms of cooling power...they're equal. There's a fair amount of phyics involved which is why i can't be bothered elaborating.
